Visual Studio - How to replace a text file

Question

Using the search and replace dialog in Visual Studio (2010), you can replace any text, but save the text of the replaced text.

T. I want to change "foo" to "bar", but in my code there are Foo, foo and FOO. I want the replacement to be Bar, bar, BAR, respectively.

Is it possible? I suspect that I need to use regular expression functionality, but I need help with this.

EDIT . I know that I can establish a match option, but all that does this is the restriction on replacing text that matches the case of a search query. This is how I do it at the moment, but it is tiring to have three replacements: foo, Foo, and FOO

Answer 1

It is just to expand the Find Options of the Find and Replace dialog box Find and Replace check the Match Case checkbox.

Detailed dialogue documentation can be found here :

Match Case — Displays only instances of the search string that match both content and individually. For example, a search for “MyObject” with the selected match returns “MyObject”, but not “myobject” or “MYOBJECT.”

Edit: (after clarification)

I do not know an easy way to do what you want. RegEx may have been created that does this, but I suspect that in this case the search and replace will be faster, easier, and less error prone than RegEx.

Answer 2

I think if you use "match case" = true, you can replace "Foo" with "Bar" and "foo" with "bar"
